Founder of Unhealthy Anonymous and one of the largest chiropractor clinics in North America, author Sulack has served over nine hundred thousand patients during the last twelve years. Known as America’s Leading Stress Expert, he is a teacher, lecturer, and writer.

After an introduction, twelve chapters discuss steps for good health and happiness, ending with the author’s biography and advertisements. There is no alphabetical index or reference to the thirty-minute recipes for meals mentioned on the back jacket cover. Sporadically inserted are “Did You Know,” “Wake-Up Call,” “Myth vs. Fact,” and “Evolution vs. Revolution” blurbs with bibliography notes ending each chapter.

Stating that the human body is designed to heal itself, the writer believes must be restored to proper function first. Within the twelve-step program, one can identify, connect, choose, recognize, rest, detox, nourish, rejoice, move, align, strengthen, and reach out to others to obtain a better lifestyle.
